97 GTX Exhaust Rubber Parts/Hoses, Where to Find???

[Skidoodle]

Ok, so today I fired up my GTX on the trailer and noticed immediately that I had a serious exhaust leak under the seat. The coupler between the pipe and resonator is split open and just rotten and I noticed that the rearmost exhaust hose between the resonator and the hull outlet is also very soft in certain spots. What/where/who/how do I get replacements? I noticed that Seadoo has discontinued the rear hose #22 in the illus. (PN 274000420) and I have not found another source. Suggestions? I did see where the coupler can be bought on Ebay for a mint. What do yall use? THX!

Napa or similar engine performance shop should have silicon couplers or hoses made by Gates.

The OEM is Gates 24032, NAPA carries it, an it's sold by the foot. A leaking or a bad water regulator is the usual cause, you probably need a new bellows. Part no. 17

Is the 24032 hose to be used in place of the pre-formed hose that goes from the resonator to the exit port in the transom? I will disassemble the regulator and check the bellows. I don't suppose that they would interchange with the bellows used in the R.A.V.E. valves? Thanks for your input! You are a walking encyclopedia on Seadoos. lolX3

Nope this is the hose that goes from the exhaust manifold (cone), to the water box, part no. 29, if you need the exhaust hose, from the water box to the exhaust outlet part no. 22, your best bet would be to get a good used one from minnetonka4me.
